At 2 years of age Lee weighed as much as when he was six months old. What can we do to
make sure he becomes a better father than his own?

Failure to thrive - emotional deprivation.
Rejected John was tiny for his age and full of fears. He recovered some
stability during our assessment process and was helped to make the
transition to an adoptive family - where years later he is doing
very well.

Foetal alcohol syndrome. Marks mother was successfully rehabilitated in
our residential treatment programme and is living independently in sobriety.

Teenage pregnancy, Support for two generations - young mothers may have been
abused themselves and need help to break the cycle.

Pat suffered horrific sexual abuse over a number of years which only ceased with
the disclosure at the death of her father. Recovery was slow hindered by self mutilation
and drug abuse but long term residential care with therapy eventually resulted in a
successful transition to the community.

When Sally was admitted with a partial paralysis following a brain haemorrhage and
skull fracture it was unclear which parent had physically abused her - but during
the assessment process the psychological profile of her mother clearly showed a
psychopathic personality and the high level of future risk led us to recommend a full care
order and adoption.

We are unique in providing psychotherapy,
education and general care and in taking a variety of referrals of all ages - e.g. abused boys and girls who
may self harm and mutilate, families where parents have a drug or alcohol problem, young
pregnant girls who have been abused, families where abuse has occurred or is suspected for
assessment and possible rehabilitation.

The aims of our service are to enable abuse victims to overcome the pain of their
experiences, to improve their self worth which has been damaged by abuse and violence and
to give them the skills to become happy children or effective parents.

High level monitoring and surveillance
